R&G release crash bungs for new Honda CB1000R
Protect your new CB1000R with R&G's latest crash protection system
R&G RACING has released a full range of crash protection and styling parts for Honda’s new super naked CB1000R.
The absence of a full fairing, and the protection that gives, exposes the CB1000R’s frame and Fireblade-derived engine, leaving it more vulnerable to damage in the event of an accident.
R&G Racing’s answer to this, without upsetting the styling, is with a six-strong offering of bolt-on protectors. Leading the way are heavy-duty Engine Case Sliders that bolt over the existing engine covers each side of the four-cylinder motor and sleek Aero Crash Protectors extending from the frame’s forward engine mounts.
The Aero Crash Protectors are made from high-density Polyethylene (HDPE) and are designed to wear and not shatter. R&G also utilise a particular grade of steel bolts that helps absorb an impact by bending, rather than snap or twist its mounting point on the bike.
Bar End Sliders help guard the fuel tank; Fork Protectors for the adjustable, upside down suspension and rear Spindle Sliders for the single-sided swingarm.
R&G claim their crash protectors for the CB1000R are relatively
simple to fit and do not require any specialist tools to do so, leaving very little excuse for not taking precaution.
